First bill (4-28 to 5-24) won't have a full month of EV charging on it (I didn't get the car until around mother's day) -- (edited) - oblique Jun 3, 12:17 8
- turn off the lights more! -- nm - decline Jun 3, 12:19 7
  - I'm definitely inclined to slip the electrician cash to install a set of iotawatt sensors around the various wires while they have the panels open - oblique Jun 3, 12:21 6
    - I would do this. I mean, why not? -- nm - amanda Jun 3, 12:34 2
      - in theory I could DIY it. The breakers I'm not so concerned about but the mains give me pause and then making it all tidy inside I definitely don't - oblique Jun 3, 12:37 1
        
        you could also slip him a few bucks to run a line to the neighbor's house so if you really under-estimated you can steal theirs -- nm - decline Jun 3, 12:39
    - is your smart thermostat still learning? - decline Jun 3, 12:27 2
      - "Okay, I got it. Yes, 'don't play in the bathtub.' *god* it was one time..." -- nm - thermostat Jun 3, 13:24
      - I guess to a point. It's always learning but my schedule has the house set at 75 and we haven't had the air on significantly - oblique Jun 3, 12:28
